Steaming Pile, Don't Bother
I'm running the demo adventure tonight and thought ok "I'll spend $2.99 on top of the other piddly price tags they've put in this game if it means things will go smoother".
The app crashes like crazy. I opened it up and scanned the demo adventure. Crash. I then "purchased" the free demo adventure in game and then scanned. Ok that worked!
The demo adventure has many foes but the scan only added the mooks and not even a correct number of them. So I started manually adding the named foes. There are 3 of the same name! Picking any of them... guess what... crash.
This is not something that will make your game run smoother, in fact it'll be the opposite. You're better off with paper and the tracker they provide. Hopefully this isn't a sign for what this actual game will be like (I've noticed it's basically vanished into the swirling pile of dead-old games that most games fall into)

Crashes literally every time you scan a QR code
So close…mostly great!
This app is a great tool and timesaver, but it’s got a real learning curve. Definitely test it out extensively before running a game with it. One MAJOR problem to keep in mind: the game only tracks your primary attack, so if you make a secondary attack, this app will still use your primary skill on it. You can work around this by imposing a penalty, but it’s a drag and the app itself doesn’t make this clear.
I hope the developers fix this bug and clean up the U.I. of this a little bit. Then this will be essential.

Missing vital elements
If all you're looking to do is run fights with normal mooks or a handful of named NPCs, this app might help. However, I've been unable to create my own named NPCs, and I can find no way of 'activating' schticks so that they influence the fight. If you want to use any schticks at all, active or passive, you have to factor them into the calculations manually, which can be impossible if they require spending shots and other resources like Chi.
It's so close to being potentially brilliant, but in its current state I find it pretty much useless and a waste of money. This makes me very sad, as everything else about the game is amazing.

Fantastic
So far so good! Hopefully they add more but it's very intuitive and useful to keep track with.
